Thanks guys - but for another $200 I can get another 044 delivered. If I didnt already have 2 of them the A1000 would be a great option. The 2 x 044's should outflow the A1000 easily.

How much are one of these A1000's ? And who sells them ? I know magnaflow make a pump rated at 1000hp - I havent compared the actual flow rates etc yet. I dont think Ill get much more out of it on pump fuel and with a cat ( maybe 600 rwhp ) - but its better to be safe than sorry.

I saw 33SLY on Mount Lindsay Hway yesterday.

Hey Gary Just trying to find room underneath to put the 2 pumps ( in a safe place ) is an issue in its self :-) Will 1 x 044 intank be able to feed 2 x 044's inline ?

Went 560 rwhp today on 23psi, and then started to lean out again. Current setup is an 044 intank feeding a 044 in line - all on 98 BP fuel. I think Ill have to go twin 044's and a surge tank to overcome this problem. Wanted to keep away from fuel pumps in the boot etc but cant see any other options now.

I cant remember the price too be honest - maybe 300 - 400 for springs with the retainers to suit. Depending on the comp ratio you are after, I can supply CP's and rods to suit the NEO with 30 bottom end. Is this engine going in a R34GTFour ?

Performance Springs makes springs and retainers for NEO engine - I have them in my engine. For the small outlay compared to the money you will be spending on the rest of the motor to make 500awhp - it isnt even worth considering whether to buy them or not.

yes - but you really need to check that the clearences are all good - your crank didnt come from the new block you are going to use, so just have the bearings all assembled in your new block and the girdle torqued down to spec ( no crank ) - then measure the main tunnel sizes with bearings fitted , then measure your crank mains journals and subtract the difference - this will give you the clearence on your crank to bearing. Then do the same with your rods with bearings fitted and then measure yourbig ends etc. Make sense ?

Dude, if you put it like that :-) They are about $180 But seriously - get that crank checked in the new block just to be safe along with the rods. If all is ok then the bearings should be sweet.

Al - for the small price I would definetly replace the rings - just for piece of mind. Make sure the new block is machined to suit the pistons you have and have the crank mains and big ends are mount and measured - to make sure the bearing clearences are all the same.

Always in stock mate. How did you luck on such goodness :-)

Go the CP 9.0:1, the Arias might be a tad high for the power you are aiming for on pump fuel.

I have a 2nd hand AVCR email [email protected]

CP make 8.2 and 9.0:1 pistons to suit RB30/25 - both can make less or more with a few mods. Cheers

go the T04Z :-)

Hi Gary When you say " we machine oil squirters into the conrods " are you referring to what is used in the OEM rod. A oil feed hole in the rod that sprays up under the crown fed from the big end ?

Is the $900 quote just for the nitriding ? or all the machining ? ( bore, hone, crank grind etc )

No real reason - its very responsive now. Just want to try 9.0:1 and do a few minor changes while Ive got the engine out.

I am using ACL RB30ET pistons - comp ratio is 8.5:1 with Std Nissan Headgasket. I am about to build a new bottom end as I want more compression, so will be using Cp pistons. CP make 2 pistons for the RB30/25/26 ( With R33 head ). So there 8.2:1 piston will come in very close to 9.0:1 with the NEO head - Ill cc everything to confirm but current calculations are around 9.0:1.

I have 408rwkw, and its not enough :-) But Im an acceleration junkie. My engine makes full boost at 4000 rpm so far from being a lag monster. It is very streetable. I run semi slicks full time now and they get every bit of that power to the ground. Each to there own. Your setup sounds like it will do exactly what you have in mind.

ah - makes sense now :-) I actually thought the turbo was bigger and couldnt understand why you had kept the VCT.

Al - what is that turbo - you have prob mentioned it previously.

I have a Q45 also - making 408 rwkw - no idea if it would have made that power with out though

the bolts should be the same - so 7/16 it is

depends on which ARP bolts you have - there are several different sizes, wrench head, thickness and length. But at a guess Id say 7/16
